Eyepatched Masamune!? ...how...from where...RELEASE IT!

[Erwin Rommel]

This should be announced in bold grand letters made in a thread in the GENERAL DISCUSSION subforum since this deserves more audience, announcing to the would the new awesomeness of Masamune............with an eyepatch.



Oh and dont forget Shingen's wig. maybe a footnote about that.

[other mitch]

And that is a good idea. I'll try to do it...

Edit:
I can easily make one for custom battles (or battles in general):

But I can't find a way for it to work on campaign selection screen, diplomacy screen or this animated portrait in lower left part of the campaign or battle screen. Alpha channel isn't working there, exactly like Anton III said earlier.
I'm looking for a way to work around this issue, but nothing good came out of it so far.
And I don't know if it's worth it, since this change is barely noticeable

Man! the Bull in front of your name is getting in the way of your true nature sir!

Can you use the Noble_head_9 model for the face and have eyepatch if your using it as a mask? I think that one just looks like the youngest face...

P.S. I finally figured out how to make new models! thanks alot for pointing me in the right direction man...

[GatorMarine1833]

The eye patch is awesome!

Despite the bugs, it's totally worth it!

[BullGod]

OK, guys
I've managed to minimalize unwanted effects a little. Check the Date mod under the first post and lat me know what you think.

I love you. Can't wait for it and anything you will do in the future.

[♔The Black Knight♔]

Now just imagine masemune with two pistols... That would be awesome!

[BullGod]

I've uploaded Shimazu mod. What do you think?

HOLY . It looks fking awesome. But he looks kinda like one of those Rise Of The Samurai units, doesn't he? o_o

[Erwin Rommel]

How about that sode shoulder guard used by Nobunaga ingame, instead of that overly large O-yoroi as an alternative?

I gave him shoulder armor from ROTS because it fitted illustrations, and made him little more distinctive from others.

but I guess I can try and see how it will look with that one

I hate to say this, but he has a point, its like very big and doesnt seem to fit him. If you can please change that I would love it!

sure, I'm working on it right now. I didn't chose that one at first, because it is crooked and sometimes black part shows from underneath (and Shimazu uses that one in vanilla). But I'm fixing it, and it should work better than orginal.

Edit:
New file uploaded. This was a good suggestion, as it suits him well, I think. Thanks, Erwin

[ShimazuClan]

Woah. Looks way better, so using this! Thanks! Cant wait for what else you have in store. A suggestions below.

Uesugi Kenshin has some horns coming from his cowl and some kinda band with it (I guess)?

[weirdoascensor]

Whoah, great insight of using Mask slot for wigs; also what a clever use of textures to make Eyepatch for Masamune!

You sir, are a genius.

[Heiro de Bodemloze]

Wow, this is awesome! Loving the Shingen wig

Must be just what you've wanted Erwin

[Hazeyshot]

what about Hideyoshi Hashiba for the Oda?(Pleeeasseeee!)

It's not often that I hear that, but it is certainly nice

Thank you all for kind words. Thank you also for any suggestions - great way to make things better.

Uesugi Kenshin has some horns coming from his cowl and some kinda band with it (I guess)?

I've seen couple of illustrations of him wearing something like this. It looks kinda like he is wearing a helmet wrapped in cloth, with maedate and those "flaps" showing at sides.
I can't find a way to add crest to his cowl, though. I think model must have some kind of connecting point for that, and clothed headgear models simply don't. Merging his cowl with helmets didn't produce any sayisfying results also, so I think it will not be possible to have Uesugi Kenshin with any kind of crest (at least not if we want him to look good).
But I'm working on him, retexturing etc. So we'll see how it will turn out

I would be happy to, but I'm not sure who he is, or would be in game, if he's not there yet. I must figure out how this system works for secondary characters. Is there any Ishida Mitsunari, or Hideyoshi Hashiba defined somwhere, with unique variant model? Or do they use generic generals models shared with other characters? Can it be defined, to make them unique? I have a lot to find out in this regard yet.
I'm going to stick to daimyos for now, especially those famous ones, and after that I might switch to generals if time permits and if I'll have enough enthusiasm left
